No, no, no.....the goon squad will get him if he chooses red. And more importantly, NextLevel will think he has some kind of clue about something cool and something else about....erm....overused Euro....ehem....rubbers!!!!

You have to have a real forehand to use your rubbers to the point they show wear and tear. Would like to be nice but OP'S technique does not qualify if we go strictly by the video evidence.

Darn it. If that's the case, how could I even hope to have a clue about having cool looking overused Euro rubbers on my FH. I may as well just go out and buy myself a ZJK SZLC with T25 rubbers and admit that I am just a totally clueless TT geek; totally clueless. :cool:

Yup. Those California girls do not like used rubbers.

So, I have 4 blades from OSP.

1) Virtuoso Off- (Limba-Limba-Ayous-Limba-Limba)
2) V'King (Koto-Spruce-Ayous-Spruce-Koto)
3) Custom Blade specially made for me (Limba-Spruce-Ayous-Spruce-Limba)
4) Virtuoso Plus (Limba-Limba-Ayous-Limba-Limba)

So carl, how do the V'king and your custom play for you compared to the V+? I'm a bit curious on HKing and Eternity VPS so i thought they should play similarly

By the way, Hurricane King is a totally different animal than V'King. HKing is much slower and has a much softer feel. The V'King is excellent but it is hard and fast. It is about the speed of a TB ALC and you have to have good touch to play that blade. I like it. It has great feel and feedback. I could use it as my main blade. But I get so much more spin with my V+ that that is what I want to use.
